Dear Mr. President (Live In Chicago)

We still doing all right?

It's fucking hot up here

You guys are raising the temperature, right?

All right, so for this next song

There are two critical words that you must know

The first is, "Hey"

And the second, it comes from deep, deep, deep within

And it's, "Woo"

It's not really a word

But I think you guys are gonna start to get the idea, right?

Hey, (Everybody, make some noise) woo

(Come on, I can't hear you) Up top, hey

(All my people to the right, say) Woo

(Come on, louder, go) Hey

(All the people to the right, say) Woo

(Come on, up top) Hey

(All the people, keep it going) Woo

Broken man and his wife with a child ain't got no hope (Come on)

Outta work, outta time, old man, winter's comin' on

One meal ain't enough for three

Is this the way it's supposed to be?

Daddy just walked out, Mama raisin' family

Hey, put your foot down and take a look round

Don't like what you see

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Hey, put your foot down and take a look round

Don't like what you see

No, no, no, no, no (Come on)

Hey (All the people, make some noise)

Woo (Come on now, say)

Hey (All the people, keep it going now)

Woo

Get in line, there's no jobs, and the kids are shootin' dope

Outta work, outta time, Mama's startin' to lose hope, hope

It ain't enough to pray

When you got no place to stay

Daddy just walked out, Mama raisin' family

Hey, put your foot down and take a look round

But don't like what you see

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Hey, put your foot down and take a look round

Don't like what you see

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Dear Mr. President, there's trouble on the streets

Now is the time and the test we must meet

Dear Mr. President, take a look around

Please, Mr. President, put your foot down

(Come on, y'all) Hey (Everybody, make some noise)

Woo (Come on, I can't hear you)

Come on, hey (All my people to the right, say)

Woo (Come on, in the back)

Hey (All my people to the left, go)

Woo (Come on, up top, say)

Hey (Everybody, make some noise)

Woo, it's all you now, baby

This side over here

Come on, in the middle (Hey)

Everybody make some noise (Woo)

Come on, to the left (Hey)

Come on, people to the right, say (Woo)

Come on, in the middle (Hey)

Everybody in the front (Woo)

Come on, give it up

Give it up for your damn selves in this building right now

Seriously, I'm having so much fun up here with all of you guys

Thank you
